Extracted from How to Read the Bible by Symbols and a depiction of a monument at the ancient temple of Denderah
Was the ancient Hebrew god who resided between the cherubim (carbons) on the biblical Ark of the Covenant, in reality, just a brilliant electric arc light that inspired allegiance and worship from the gullible tribes?
All of the ancient written testimony and monumental evidence convinces us that for religious as well as practical purposes the wily illuminati directing the course of beliefs and events in antiquity deployed electric lights to illuminate their awe-inspiring lighthouses, tombs, temples, and icons.
Evidence at Denderah, in the Old Testament, and in other respected works—as well as a particularly astounding ancient eyewitness account of the apparent deployment of powerful electric lights in a church on the Mount of Olives—is quite persuasive. Some of these proofs may antagonize Judeo-Christian dogmatists, but their presentation here is necessary to help prove the ancients brandished electric lights.
The Old Testament contains several examples of dazzling lights that could have only been electrical in nature. One was the huge electric arc lamp, labeled the “pillar of fire”—a supposed divine manifestation lighting the way for the frightened Hebrews wandering through the wilderness at night. Exodus, the second of the first five books of the Bible, or the Pentateuch, says the Hebrew (electrical) god went before them “by night in a pillar of fire to give them light,” and, according to Nehemiah, to show “the way wherein they should go.”
Another example of the ancient Hebrew use of electricity is in the mysterious Ark (Arc) of the Covenant. One of the gods of the Hebrews, Yahweh, had supposedly instructed Moses to build it to his divine dimensions. Thereafter, the Electric Light God took up residence between its cherubim, or golden chunks of blazing carbon, where he allegedly discharged his instructions to Moses and other designated priests and prophets to pass on to their followers. The Old Testament’s claim of the Ark of the Covenant’s divine nature is about as believable as the contention by both Jewish and Christian commentators that Moses wrote the Pentateuch—which describes his own death! Our doubts here can be easily defended after a hard look at who Moses was and whence he came. He was the adopted and beloved son of the Pharaoh’s daughter, and he grew up in the Royal Egyptian Court where he learned about electricity and all the other magic and secrets of the crafty priests stationed there. In his Dictionary of the Bible, John D. Davis explains that
"The adopted son of a princess required a princely education, and Moses became instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians (Acts VII, 22), who were then unsurpassed in civilization by any people in the world. This was designed to fit him into high office under the government, if not even for the Egyptian throne."
However, before he could attain any high office, according to the Bible, he killed an Egyptian and tried to cover up his crime by hiding his victim in the sand. After the Pharaoh found out about it, he wanted to kill him. Therefore, Moses fled from Egyptian justice and hid in the land of Midian.
Eventually, an Electric Light God’s messenger, “a flame of fire” supposedly appeared to Moses, and Yahweh allegedly instructed him to return to Egypt and terrorize the Pharaoh and his people with enough horrific plagues (likely discovered during his priestly training) to allow the enslaved Hebrews to leave Egypt permanently.
Moses allegedly accomplished his divine assignment, but before the Hebrew rebels departed, they stole their Egyptian masters’ treasures. This made Moses realize that he needed some supernatural means of suppressing their wicked ways. Some awe-inspiring device would also be needed to motivate his displaced and apprehensive followers to abandon their recurring nostalgia for their old Egyptian gods and comfortable homeland forever and to encourage them to follow him reverently on an agonizing forty-year journey through a difficult wilderness to a foreboding land. So he and his priestly confidants—who were already quite familiar with the so-called “magic” or secret technology of the Egyptian electric arks and their dazzling arc lights—conspired to manufacture their own ark, and place a live Hebrew electrical god therein. He would be based on a familiar Egyptian design and would have his own set of divine legislation to control the newly freed tribes and suppress their pagan notions. Their secret device, a brilliant and divine light from a blazing electric arc god, was a marvel that no vulgar slave could have imagined—let alone have actually seen. And after all, in the pragmatic minds of most ancients, like most sober-minded people today, seeing is believing!

A comparison of an Egyptian ark god at the Temple at Denderah to the Hebrew light god of the Ark or Arc of the Covenant?
To install pride, inspire confidence, and motivate endurance in his people for their forty-year trek, Moses and his cohorts then taught the naive Hebrew tribes that they were the electric god’s chosen people—“above all people that are upon the face of the earth.” Furthermore, he convinced them that Yahweh (the dazzling arc light) communicated, in nearly all instances, with just him or with certain designated priests or prophets, who were, in turn, required to relay his divine instructions on to them. Sound suspicious? It certainly is! 
However, to keep the ruse a secret, only Moses or certain priestly technicians serviced the arc light and its batteries—tucked away on a stretcher deep inside the temple, away from the curious who might discover the deception and even have their eyes and faces burned by its harmful Ultra-Violet rays. While experimenting on Mount Sinai, the arc light had burned Moses’ face and it took on a golden look. Thereafter, he wore a hood or veil—like arc welders use today. As an added safety measure, he shielded the Ark (arc) light with its own veil.

The sacred proofs that identify the Ark of the Covenant as an electric arc light are randomly scattered throughout writings in the Hebrew Old Testament, a difficult work to translate, and in other authoritative works as well. The following are just a few examples that point to its great illuminating but extremely dangerous character:
One example is found in a translation of an Ethiopian authority, the Book of the Glory of Kings, translated by Dr. E. A. Wallace Budge, a deceased Keeper of the Department of Egyptian and Assyrian Antiquities in the British Museum, who has also translated several ancient Egyptian works. The ancient Ethiopic book speaks of “the light” of the Ark of the Covenant that “catcheth the eye by force, and it astonisheth the mind and stupefieth it with wonder,” and also avows that “it is a heavenly thing and is full of light.”
Next, in Ka, A Handbook of Mythology, Sacred Practices, Electrical Phenomena, and their Linguistic Connections in the Ancient Mediterranean World, the English scholar H. Crosthwaite, speaking specifically of the Ark, says: “‘The sons of Kohath shall come to bear it; but they shall not touch any holy thing, lest they die.’ (verse 15) Kadhosh’ in Hebrew means holy. Those who touch the ark are in danger from the ka or electrical charge that it may carry.”
High voltage showed no mercy then, nor does it today! One wrong move and you forfeit your right to participate in this world anymore, and poor Uzzah had no chance to warn anybody. The Electric Light God’s retribution was swift and lethal when the oxen shook the Ark’s wiring loose, and it shorted to its conductive golden case. It is recalled in II Samuel 6: 6 & 7, which says:
"And when they came to Nachon’s threshing floor, Uzzah put forth his hand to the ark [arc]of God, and took hold of it, for the oxen shook it.
And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for his error, and there he died by the ark [arc] of God."

Poor Uzzah, he made an electrifying mistake! Moses forgot to tell his people about the dangers of electricity.
There are other instances recorded in the Old Testament when the high voltage of the Electric Light God showed its lack of forgiveness. However, though dangerous, it originally served Moses well because Numbers 10:33 says when he was traveling through the wilderness with his father-in-law, “the ark of the covenant of the Lord went before them in the three days’ journey to search out a resting place for them.” “To search out” is the very purpose of a searchlight!

Note: The Catholic Encyclopedia inadvertently revealed the secret properties of the Ark of the Covenant and the destination by mentioning an obscure source—Arculf—a Frankish bishop, perhaps of Périgueux, who visited and explored the Holy Land, accompanied by Peter, a Bergundian monk, who acted as a guide. Moreover, Arculf’s detailed descriptions certainly do not lead to Ethiopia, Scotland, or even to the catacombs of the Temple Mound. The Encyclopedia gives us a little background and notes the magnitude and character of the details of his testimony by relating that “St. Bede relates (Hist. Eccles. Angl., V, 15) that Arculf, on his return from a pilgrimage to the Holy Land about 670 or 690, was cast by tempest on the shore of Scotland. He was hospitably received by Adamnan, the abbot of the island monastery of Iona, to whom he gave a detailed narrative of his travels to the Holy Land, with specifications and designs of the sanctuaries so precise that Adamnan, with aid from some extraneous sources, was able to produce a descriptive work in three books, dealing with Jerusalem, Bethlehem, the principal towns of Palestine, and Constantinople. Adamnan presented a copy of this work to Aldfrith, King of Northumbria in 698. It aims at giving a faithful account of what Arculf actually saw during his journey. As the latter 'joined the zeal of an antiquarian to the devotion of a pilgrim during his nine months’ stay in the Holy City, the work contains many curious details that might otherwise have never been chronicled.'” The rest of the story lies in The Electric Mirror.
